According to Wikipedia, Jürgen Meyer-ter-Vehn is a German theoretical physicist who specializes in laser-plasma interactions at the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics. He published under the name Meyer until 1973. Meyer-ter-Vehn's work involved examining the physical principles of inertial fusion with lasers and heavy ion beams. In the 2000s, he dealt with relativistic laser-plasma interaction and with the formation of plasma blocks by ultra-short terawatt laser pulses for laser fusion . He also further developed the concept of the wakefield accelerators for generating extremely high electric fields by laser-induced charge separation in plasma by John M. Dawson .
